6 Assistant Professor Eva College OfAyurved Zanzmer Road, Supedi Tal. Dhoraji, Dist Rajkot (Gujarat) Born in 551 BC, Confucius, a Chinese teacher and philosopher said "By three methods we may learn wisdom: First, by reflection, which is noblest; second, by imitation, which is easiest; and third by experience, which is the bitterest." We were fortunate to gain the knowledge of life, Ayurved and ayurvedic pharmaceutics along with pharmacology in the department of Rasashastra and Bhaishajyakalpana, BVDUCOA, by all these three ways. It was a wonderful experience to be a part of the department for more than 4 years. I believe whatever I have achieved so far in my life is majorly the fallouts of the knowledge gained in the department. Everyone, from Dr. Wele, Dr. Pawar, Dr. More, Vd. Gadgil; to even the lab assistants play a crucial role in molding you from a crude BAMS graduate to a well learned person as a whole. I thank everyone for being my mentors and even to the college and BharatiVidyapeeth for providing us the facility to pursue our dreams with full dynamism and sincerity. Dr. Omkar Kulkarni A researcher clinician in the field of interdisciplinary Ayurved BAMS, MD [Rasashastra and Bhaishajyakalpana] It given me immense pleasure to talk about my teachers at Rasashastra and Bhaishajyakalpana of BVDUCOA. I owe my entire research approach and mindset to them. They put in all their efforts to inculcate values of work ethics, discipline, and research orientation within us. We had a spacious department which was designed to suit out post graduate curricular activities. There were specific sections; viz quality control lab with well equipped instruments for analysis of physic- chemical parameters of raw herbs and processed formulations, 2 laboratories for formulation processing and ample provision of raw materials. A separate section for incineration of metals and metalloids was provided. The teaching techniques were very engaging and thought provoking. Power point presentations were a helpful tool as many topics were made simpler and interesting. Field trips were arranged to different pharmacies. Besides, a one month- hands on training in a GMP accredited pharmacy provided us a platform to visualize and experience current practices.

I am totally indebted to my wonderful teachers and proud to be a part of RSBKV. Thank you all. Dr.

7 Conducting demonstrations of drug processing for undergraduates helped us acquire teaching skills as a futuristic career approach. Freedom of expression was a distinct feature given by our teachers which helped us grow. I am totally indebted to my wonderful teachers and proud to be a part of RSBKV. Thank you all.
